The place is surprisingly large inside. We got seated right away. Our service was very friendly and responsive, and we both really enjoyed the entrees that we ordered.

The cuk marg had about 6 fruit flies the calhamamango tasted like mango tomato soup but the watermelon marg was okay. The food, we ordered cheese dip, a seafood chimichanga and Texana (3 meat) fajitas. The chimichanga was mid. The fajitas had shrimp and beef but they boy 3 pieces of chicken. The best part of the fajitas were the onions and peppers. The beans and rice both tasted microwaved and from 4 days ago. It was awful! And finally the service. Meh, let's go with if I can't say anything nice I shouldn't say anything. So we will leave that right there. The food runner/ bus person was a better server. And I foresee this business shutting down in 6 months. On a side note it was not busy at all. They should definitely spend some time cleaning!

If you're in the mood for Mexican food that hits different than what you're used to, you'll find it here. They put their own unique flair on everything from the salsas to the drinks to the burritos. My all time fave is the mission burrito, packed with healthy ingredients but loaded with flavor and sauces. It's delicious! It's a fun atmosphere and all the servers we've had have been super nice and helpful. They also offer a convenient lane outside for takeout so you don't even need to leave your car.

There is a new location! The menu is very similar (perhaps even the same, I don't have a head to head to compare) and the food just as good. The restaurant is much smaller but very clean, bright, and with excellent service. Seriously, we are so jazzed we can now go to our favorite place much closer to home. Our faves include the enchiladas suizas and rojas, the seafood chimichangas, and the guacamole. I also like to get a side of the grilled jalapeños to slice into my meal. Yum!! Tonight we were lucky enough to dine at the grand opening. We both got enchiladas (plus jalapeños for me!) and were delighted to experience the familiar flavors we know and love. In addition my husband had to sample a margarita, and he was not disappointed. Get here and get your fill!

It may be the worst customer service I have ever experienced in my entire life. As far as I am…read moreconcerned, this lady is the most rude and unperfectionist person I have ever encountered. I was insulted for questioning her pricing for two pieces of bread at a price of $7+. The words that were used against me were every bad and race-related word you could imagine. I worked for customer service for more than a decade, and someone like that should not be allowed to work in the public sector. I will definitely contact the state food board regarding the sanitation of this establishment. I saw bread pick up from the floor and put back on the rack and the lady wasn't even wearing gloves or a hair net. Please do better

This is both a grocery store and a restaurant I believe. It's located within the 5 Points strip…read moremall near the Charles St. end. I've been here twice this week, and I'd be hard pressed to find better Mexican food in the Rockford area. I've had the taco dinner with carne asada and al pastor tacos that were huge and delicious. Yesterday I had the rib eye burrito which was about as good as a burrito gets, and today I heated up some shrimp empanadas that were very fresh tasting and delicious. There's quite a few other things on their menu that I haven't seen in most other local Mexican restaurants, so go in and give it a try. You won't regret it. One suggestion though. There isn't much in the way of ambiance here. It's almost like a big cafeteria. You can eat there, but I prefer to get carryout. The prices are cheap. The quality of the food I've had is great. I am all about supporting local businesses, and between this place, La Michoacana (they make ice cream from scratch in front of you, and tremendously inexpensive), and Vinny's Pizza, there's a lot of great stuff to be explored in this quaint little strip mall.
